Default Need help w/ VIS J's style Carbon Fiber Hood Fitment......

What's up, I need help with trying to get my carbon fiber hood to close properly. It wont close and it seems like the hood is sitting right. Any suggestions? Tips? or help?

You probably have to put exact pressure on where the latch is, then push " hard & fast! " The hood is probably fitting very snugged so this might be the problem. Give it a couple tries gently and apply more pressure as you go. Like " trial & error. "

Just my suggestion though, good luck!

Thanks Tommy, will try again in the morning, would the hood latch position be a factor in it not closing?

Have you read this thread? It's in the FAQ in the "under the hood" forum

Hope it helps if you haven't read through it yet:
